honestly, yeah. this. I agree. if there's one thing I hate hate hate, it's characters explaining that their exes are terrible people to someone who knows only one person and has no idea of the history involved, because that...eh. makes me a little nervous and uncomfortable? (and it's SO CHILDISH. don't talk shit about your exes unless there is a current and pressing reason to talk shit about them, you dig? otherwise you sound like. a. child.)
i do agree with downthread nonny too: marci refusing to use ms. cardenas's name is racist and gross and makes her look bad. If they'd left that in there? Without Foggy aggressively confronting her about how they used to fuck/date and so she needs to listen to him and remember that she had a soul and all that nonsense?
Foggy & Karen would've been sympathetic, Marci would've been obviously the asshole, scene would've been cleaner.
As is? You get Foggy coming off as...eh, That Dude who's awesome while he's dating you and the minute you dump him he starts getting rude in public, and also Marci being racist.
